📋 Tender Overview
The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has approved the Procedure and conditions for providing subventions from the state budget to local budgets for the development of sports infrastructure in 2021. The facilities will be implemented within the framework of the presidential program 25 sports magnets. Territorial communities of Lviv region can also submit proposals. We are talking to Roman Khimyak the head of the Department of Youth and Sports of the Lviv Regional State Administration about which facilities can apply for inclusion in the list and what requirements they must meet.- What exactly can be built at the expense of the subvention- We are talking about multifunctional sports complexes sports halls for playing sports various martial arts swimming pools ice arenas sports stadiums and sports palaces. An important condition is that the facilities must be suitable for use on a national scale. Gyms or stadiums must meet the requirements of national and international competitions as well as training camps for national teams of at least five Olympic sports. In general the subvention is a real chance for communities to get a sports facility of European level. By accumulating funds from regional and local budgets we can build stadiums or swimming pools that will serve the needs of one or more communities. Instead when it comes to large-scale facilities you cant do without state funding. In 2021 we managed to attract funds from the State Fund for Regional Development for three facilities stadiums in Sokal Yavoriv and sports grounds with artificial turf at the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv. As part of the Comprehensive Program we also provided funds for the repair of stadiums in Mostyska Stryi and co-financing of the Sokil complex. Now communities have a real chance to expand this list and want them to use it. Stryi and co-financing of the Sokal complex Falcon.

However here it is important that the balance holder of the building clearly reports on what budget funds will be spent earlier showed the condition of the facility now. Today there are two such facilities in the region a swimming pool of Davidivska CYSS Trident and a sports complex of Brody Pedagogical College.- Can private entities apply for subvention funds - Proposals for the inclusion of a sports facility in the list of facilities with the appropriate justification and materials are submitted to the Ministry of Youth and Sports by local executive bodies executive bodies of city councils and territorial communities. Funding is provided only for objects of communal ownership. These can be individual sports facilities or facilities that belong to the institutions of physical culture and sports. At the same time the funds of private investors would be a meaningful addition to the expenditures from the state budget a kind of mechanism of public-private partnership.- What conditions does the Ministry outline for those who submit proposals- Applicants must guarantee co-financing of the facility not less than 10 percent of the total cost of construction and reconstruction of sports facilities planned for the first year. Also an important condition is the availability of the necessary documents for the work. This includes design and estimate documentation work permit and expert report. The plan for the use of funds in 2021 should be submitted separately. It is also important that the number of spectator seats at the facilities should be at least 500. The facilities should be accessible to people with disabilities and other low-mobility groups. In addition the customer in the proposal must provide documentary evidence from five sports federations on the compliance of the sports facility with the requirements necessary for all-Ukrainian and international competitions for example standard track length - 400 m track width - 1.22 m number of oval tracks not less - 4 number of straight tracks - 6 radius - 36500 m and so on.- Who will decide which facilities will receive funding - A special commission chaired by the First Deputy Minister will be formed at the Ministry of Youth and Sports. The decision will be made by the majority of the commission. Then the list of proposals submitted by the Ministry of Youth and Sports must be approved by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine and the minutes of the Commission will be available on the website of the Ministry of Youth and Sports no later than the next working day after signing the protocol.- Previously many sites in the towns and villages of Lviv region were built at the expense of the regional budget. Now the list of sites that are planned to equip is much smaller but funds are provided for the reconstruction of stadiums. Why did you change the vector of work - At the regional level we have begun to shift the focus from small facilities to multifunctional sports facilities with the possibility of their operation by several communities and holding regional and national competitions. Strategically it is much more far-sighted. This will allow even relatively small communities to develop and thrive. By the way with effective management such facilities can be self-sustaining.And most importantly in recent years with the joint funds of budgets of all levels in the Lviv region we have equipped more than 300 sites with synthetic coating size 42x22. And it is absolutely logical and timely that we change priorities.
